Haian are great plastic pants, come in a selection of colours too. Gary wear, are very good too, but a bit pricey. Rearz do great diaper wraps and themed plastic pants too.wearing said:I've been buying and wearing plastic pants for over 20 years. The last few years it been Haian brand for me. You can't beat them for the quality and price.
Thank you for the advice. I will definitely look into the 7-8 mil thickness range especially.jbond007 said:I've been wearing plastic panties most of my life, so I have much to say on this. Firstly, when you use the term "plastic pants," I interpret you to mean 100% PVC (vinyl) plastic. I refuse to wear anything else, so that's all I know. As for what is "best" - well, that's a big question. The short answer is, "It depends." (No pun intended, of course.) Question: How and when do you want to wear them?
If you're wearing an incon brief or pad in your underwear during the day, you can get away with a snug fit, a brief or low-rise cut. However, if you're wearing a proper diaper, you'll want something more generous, perhaps even with a higher rise. I usually wear cloth diapers to bed every night, for which I recommend a plastic pant with a fuller cut. This allows breathability and slightly better leakage protection. However, a garment of that type and size is difficult to hide under street-clothes.
Consider also plastic thickness. Thickness is measured in thousandths of an inch. One thousandth of an inch is one MIL. Most adult plastic pants generally run in the 3-mil to 8-mil range. Personally, I find 3-mil to be much too flimsy, and susceptible to puncturing or tearing. Four-mil is about the minimum for durability, especially if you are physically active. Personally, I prefer a 7- or 8-mil thickness but I understand that many people find that thickness uncomfortable. To each his own; you'll just have to experiment until you discover what feels best on you.
ADVICE:
1) Be careful about Asian vendors (e.g., Haian), and make sure to scrutinize their size-charts very carefully. To this end, and especially for us Yankees, make it a point to familiarize yourself with the Metric System, and learn what a centimeter is. Asian ready-to-wear stock sizes often run much smaller than in the West. An ill-informed size choice can lead to a pant that doesn't fit, and you can't return those garments, which means You Eat The Cost!
2) Fetware (www.fetware.com) went out of business some time ago when the proprietor(s) retired. This was a bitter, bitter loss. Some of my favorite plastic panties I bought from Fetware and these are now irreplaceable. Accursèd!
3) Cleaning: My own practice is to handwash my plastic pants in either Woolite or Dreft, rinse thoroughly and hang indoors to air dry. Do not use chlorine bleach or excessive detergents for these will break down the PVC. Do not use a heated mechanical dryer.

Hi. I’ve tried a few, and through trial and error (and wasted money/time). My absolute favorite so far is rearz snap cover/what they call wraps. They’re very high quality, adjustable snaps to accommodate various waist and hips, soft quiet material and super cute patterns. I wash it with my cloth diapers or onesies and there’s no color bleeds or fading. Line dry. I have the critter caboose, princess pink pocket diaper and ordering the day dreamer one soon. Highly recommend! It’s worth the price! I also have pul side snap covers from CTDC and they’re equal in quality for price, but run small. I had to size up from medium to extra large and the snaps still make marks on my legs. Hope this helpsLittlebabymikey said:I was wondering what type of plastic pants do you all wear, and also how do you care for them?
